love this notion that henderson did "f#ck all" last season. a season when he was played out of position for the majority in a side that was hardly setting the world alight.
typical fan view which sums up why england will never win anything. if he's not spraying hollywood balls, diving into tackles or peppering shots from 25 yards people think he isn't contributing. they should actually go and watch the kid play every once in a while.
he'll never get the credit he deserves from some because he's not a "highlights player" as i like to call them. he's not flash, just like multiple league winning carrick and current league champion barry, both of whom hardly scored or made a goal between them last season but were still vital parts of their respective sides.
The side wasn't setting the world alight simply because all the purchases were average mid-table quality, bar Enrique and Bellamy.
But I do agree with you about England never gonna be winning anything though!
